Each stage includes a bundle of vertical tubes, supported by upper and lower horizontal support plates, the tubes serving for the ascent and descent of liquid within such stage. The ascent tubes extend above the upper support plates by between 0.5 and 10 times their diameter. Through pipes in each separation plate, coaxial with the ascent tubes of the stage above, carry up-flowing gas or vapor and a down tube extends through each separation plate partially into the space above the upper support plate of the stage below.
6 Claims, 3 Drawing Figures PATENTEDFEB 15 I972 l n venlors fig-i 1 MULTISTAGE REACTORS The present invention relates to a multistage reactor suitable for carrying out reactions which take place continuously at relatively low speeds, and for which it is essential to achieve high degrees of conversion of the reagents.
Multistage reactors consist of a series of stages in each of which one attempts to maintain the concentrations of the various constituents the sameat all points within the stage, so that the product leaving each stage has the same composition as the product within such stage.
One known construction of a-multistagereactor, for continuously carrying out, either concurrently or in countercurrent, reactions between gases and liquids or between liquids but in the presence of a gaseous or vapor phase, comprises a vertical column divided into stages by horizontal separation plates each such stage including a bundle of tubes consisting of tubes of various diameters which serve for the ascent and descent of the liquid within such stage, through pipes being provided in each separation plate between two consecutive stages, for the passage of gas or vaporfrom the lower stage to the upper stage, these through pipes being coaxial with the liquid ascent tubes of the bundle of tubes of the upper stage, and a down tube for the passage of liquid from one stage to the next, this down tube extending downwardly partially into the space above the bundle of tubes of thestage immediately below the plate in question. i
This type of reactor permits excellent exchanges of material and heat between theliquid and gas phases. However, under certain conditions, there may be observed above the tube cluster a partial entrainment-of gas or vapor bubbles. The circulation of the liquid is thus slowed down and the efficiency of the exchanges is reduced.
According to the present invention, there is provided such a reactor comprising a vertical column divided into stages by horizontal separation plates each such stage including a bundle of tubes consisting of tubes which serve for the ascent and descent of the liquid within such stage, through pipes being I provided in each separation plate between two consecutive stages, for the passage of gas or vapor from the lower stage to the upper stage, these through pipes being coaxial with the liquid ascent tubes of the bundle of tubes of the upper stage, upper and lower substantially horizontal support plates for each bundle, to support the tube of a bundle in the column and a down tube for the passage of liquid from one stage to the next, this down tube extending downwardly partially into the space above the upper support plate of the stage immediately below the plate in question, a portion of each ascent tube of at least one of said bundles extending above the upper support plate of said bundle by a height of between 0.5 and 10 times its internal diameter.
In order that the invention may more readily be understood, the following description is given, merely by way of example, reference being made to the accompanying drawings, in which:
FIG. 1 is an axial section, of one stage of one embodiment of multistage reactor according to the invention;
FIG. 2 is a view similar to FIG. 1 of a second embodiment of one stage of a reactor according to the invention; and
FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 1 of a third embodiment of one stageof a reactor according to the invention.
FIG. 1 illustrates onestage of a reactor according to the invention. The reactor comprises a vertically extending cylindrical vessel 1 which is divided into a plurality of stages by a number of horizontally extending separating plates. Each stage, includes a bundle of tubes 2, such bundle being arranged slightly below the center of the stage, so that the space above the bundle is larger than thespace below the bundle in such stage. The bundle of tubes comprises upper and lower supporting plates 3 and 4 between which extend a plurality of outer tubes 5 and a single central tube 7.
Each of the separating plates has, extending therethrough, immediately below each tube-5, a pipe 6. In the center of each separating plate, immediately below the central tube 7, is a downtube 10 passing into the upper portion, below.
In order to heat or cool the reaction occurring in each stage, the heating or cooling liquid is introduced and expelled through tubes 8 and 9, into the space between the two plates 3 and 4, of each bundle, so that. the-heating or cooling fluid can flow in contact with the outside of the tubes 5 and 7.
Where a reactor consisting of stages, like that of FIG. 1, is used for reactions comprising a liquid phase and a gaseous or vapor phase, such as the reactions considered above, the operation ofthe reactor may be controlled in such a way that, in each stage, the liquid does not exceed a certain level between the upper separating plate and the lower orifice of the centraldown tube'10 into this plate, thus leaving a sumcient space in theupper, part of the stage where the gas or vapor which has traversed the stage can collect. This gas or vapor passes from one stage to the stage immediately above by passing through the pipes 6, then emulsifies the liquid it encounters and causes it to rise in the ascent tubes 5 of the bundle 2 above, thus in each stage causing a circulation of liquid between the lower and upper spaces, whatever may otherwise be the direction of overall flow of the liquid through the reactor.
The new reactor of the inventionthus consists of an assembly of stages analogous to that shown in FIG. 1, and additionally there are at the bottom and top the usual inlets and outlets for the reagents and the products resulting from the reaction.
The reactor of the invention may optionally also, like all multistage reactors, comprise complementary feed pipes (not shown) within the stages to make it possible to divide the feed along the length of the reactor according to the reaction conditions.
The tubes 5 extend between the plates 3 and 4 and rise to a height between 0.5 and I0 times and preferably between 1.5 and 6 times their internal diameter above the upper plate 3, the tubes 5 remaining immersed. The tubes 5 and 7 are assembled in fluidtight manner on the plates 3 and 4 by conventional methods, such as expanding, welding,etc.
The tubesS illustrated in FIG. I extend to an equal height above the plate 3, whereas the tubes 5 illustrated in FIG. are disposed in concentric rings around the tube 7. The tubes of one ring extend to an equal height above the plate 3. The tubes 5 extend abovethe plate 3 to a height which is greater in proportion as they are disposed in rings of smaller diameter, i.e., as they are closer to the tube 7. The tubes 5 illustrated in FIG. 3 are bevelled or chamferedat their upper end which extends above the plate 3, the unslopedportion of the bevel being on the sidecloser to the tube 7.
These various embodiments are referred to by way of example and have no limiting character. A number of modified embodiments will be apparent to the person skilled in the art. More particularly, the tubes of the cluster of thereactor serving for the ascent of the liquid may be extended by end members of different diameter which are fixedly mounted either on the tubes of the cluster or on the plate 3.
The reactor according to the invention facilitates the separation of the liquid and gas phases and the descent of the liquid. It enables the liquid phase to circulate at higher speeds, whereby the heat exchanges and the material exchanges between phases are improved. This reactor is employed in the same way as the multistage reactors of known type.
The technical advance afforded by the present invention may be illustrated by the following comparative example:
of the stage EXAMPLE The apparatus illustrated in FIG. 1 was employed, and included six tubes 5 having an internal diameter of 28 mm., disposed .above and coaxially with nozzles of a diameter of 2 mm. These .tubes'were also distributed on a circle .of a diameterof 108 mm. around a central :tube having .a height of 400 mm. and an internal diameter of 50 mm. The tubes 5 extended to a height of 100 mm. above the plate 3 and the stage was filled with water, the level of which in the state of rest was 160 mm. above the plate 3.
Air was introduced at a rate of flow of 2 cubic meters per hour (under normal temperature and pressure conditions), so that a water circulation was set up within the stage under consideration. The rate of waterflow, measured within the tube 7, was equal to 5.8 cubic meters per hour.
By way of comparison, all other conditions being equal, with the tubes 5 extending to a height of 50 mm. above the plate 3, the rate of flow of water was equal to 5.3 cubic meters per hour.
With the tubes 5 not extending above the plate 3, the rate of waterflow was reduced to 4.2 cubic meters per hour.
The efficiency of the heat exchanges and material exchanges between the liquid and gas phases being directly related to the speeds of circulation of the fluids within the apparatus, it will be seen that the apparatus comprising the improvement according to the invention has a distinctly improved efficiency as compared with the multistage reactor of known type.

In July, Apple announced a landmark partnership with IBM that will leverage Big Blue's analytics tools and push Apple's devices deeper into the enterprise.
It's an exciting convergence of two of the largest tech firms out there, and the end result may erode the PC's strong grip on the enterprise market.
When the news of the IBM partnership hit, the common theory was that this would be a way for Apple to fix its shrinking growth in iPad sales.
But if Apple wants to boost its business bona fides, it will have to develop a better than just selling a bunch of iPhones and iPads to big companies.
Apps are key too, according to a source familiar with Apple's enterprise strategy. And Apple needs way to showcase enterprise apps or launch a standalone enterprise app store that would be a hub business employees could go to while setting up their devices.
Penetrating the enterprise will be a heavy lift for Apple. For example, enterprise software giant SAP already has dozens of apps in the App Store, suggesting that there's something substantial that Apple will need to latch onto if it wants to succeed.
However, enterprise apps are still lumped together with everything from the Kim Kardashian game to Snapchat. And finding the app you want when you need it is still a big challenge for the App Store. Poor curation and search in the App Store are two of the biggest problems developers want Apple to fix.
In short, Apple needs to take its enterprise app ecosystem as seriously as it takes iOS devices.

I have been researching AWS. It seems a little confusing to me. We want a single box for production purposes before we go live. It will have MySQL, SVN, Java, and a few other custom attributes.
1) What features of AWS should I sign up for if we are only developing - not live. Can you suggest a configuration? We are looking to keep our costs as low as possible right now.
2) Is it possible to get an instance with pre-bundled stuff like SVN and MySQL? Where do i Look?
3) What instance type should I be selecting if we are only developing? Here are my choices: http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/
4) Which would be more cost-effective for us - reserved or on-demand? I suppose on-demand would be cheap because we have no traffic other than dev stuff but I like that the reserved instances will let me know what I will be spending ahead of time. Anybody have any experience here?

Directional Aspects of Forensic Gunshot Recordings
Crime scene forensic evidence may include audio gunshot recordings obtained from some known or assumed location with respect to the shooting position. The acoustic evidence of the gunshot depends significantly upon the relative orientation of the firearm's barrel and the recording microphone due to the inherent directional characteristics of the gun, the microphone, and the acoustical characteristics of the surrounding environment. This paper describes an experiment involving the directional characteristics of several types of firearms.

Huskies coach questioned again over gambling
SEATTLE -- The NCAA is still investigating whether gambling was a common practice in the University of Washington athletic department.
School officials are expected to release a report on its own investigation in the next month or two. At that point, the school could announce sanctions it hopes would be ratified by the NCAA and the Pac-10.
Husky football coach Rick Neuheisel was fired in July for betting thousands of dollars in neighborhood gambling pools during the past two NCAA basketball tournaments and, according to athletic director Barbara Hedges, for not being forthcoming when first questioned by NCAA investigators.
Coach Keith Gilbertson, Neuheisel's successor, confirmed he talked to NCAA and Pac-10 investigators this week. They are investigating possible gambling pools in the Washington football office.
The investigators were on the Washington campus Wednesday.
"I've been advised to say we cannot discuss it while there's an investigation going on," Gilbertson told The Seattle Times on Thursday. "They were here -- talked to us -- talked to me yesterday."
The newspaper asked Gilbertson if the investigators specifically talked to other members of the Huskies' football staff. He replied: "They talked to me. They visited with me."
Washington media relations director Jim Daves confirmed the investigators were on campus this week.
"They were here," Daves said. "But we don't comment on an investigation while it's ongoing."
In the summer, Gilbertson said he told the NCAA he took part in one pool, in 1999, and said: "I might have been in another one. I don't remember."
Gilbertson, 55, got the Washington head coaching job July 29, one day after Neuheisel's dismissal became official.
Washington officials previously have acknowledged that Gilbertson and other football coaches participated in an office pool in 1999, but not any other years.
Gilbertson was an assistant at Washington under Neuheisel from 1999-2003, including being the offensive coordinator from 2000-2003.
A former coach at California and Idaho, Gilbertson signed a four-year contract with the Huskies that will pay him as much as $870,000 a year. His base pay is $420,000 a season.
Neuheisel has sued the NCAA and Washington, alleging breach of contract by the school and accusing NCAA officials of defamation, conspiracy and wrongfully interfering with his job.

As far as his online cash game career goes, LuckyGump was first picked up by other poker tracking sites in the fall of 2009. By December of 2009, LuckyGump accumulated $100,000 in winnings while playing $10/$20 and $25/$50 PLO games. Over the next year, Makarov quickly took his bankroll from $100k to $1 million. The early part of 2011 saw Makarov go on the aforementioned run where HighStakesDB tracked his earnings as high as $1.04 million on February 22nd.
In addition to cash games, LuckyGump also plays in tournaments where he's had considerable success in both MTT's and SNG's. Makarov won Event #17 in the 2010 SCOOP ($500,000 Guaranteed, 6-max w/rebuys), and he earned almost $151k for the victory. Makarov also placed 22nd in the 2010 SCOOP Main Event to earn an additional $39k. Tournament tracking sites show that LuckyGump commonly plays in both $500 and $1,000 PLO heads-up SNG's too.
Aside from his high stakes cash game and tournament play, LuckyGump was also a member of Team PokerStars Online from December of 2009 to December of 2010

The UK referendum and the probable slowdown of the UK economy increased the downside risks for other European economies. We expect global monetary policy to shift further in a dovish direction, which will limit the Fed's ability to raise its policy rate, despite robust US macro data.
The Brexit vote will first and foremost have negative consequences for the UK economy, which is likely to see its expansion slow significantly. We expect some spillovers into other economies due to trade, confidence and financial contagion effects.Read the article

Man arrested after officer struck by stolen cruiser in VtThe Associated Press | January 28,2014ST. ALBANS Police in St. Albans have arrested a man accused of driving a city police cruiser, striking an officer who tried to stop him, and then crashing the vehicle after a nearly 2-mile chase.
Police said the officer was treated at a hospital for minor injuries and released Sunday night.
Police first chased Roger Patenaude on foot; there was an active arrest warrant for him. They said the 34-year-old Patenaude found an unlocked, running police cruiser and hit the officer, who ordered him to stop.
Police pursued Patenaude. They said he eventually crashed the cruiser into a utility pole on Route 104.
He was treated at a hospital, then arrested on charges including aggravated assault and attempting to elude.MORE IN Vermont NewsPHILADELPHIA After standing at the podium to second the nomination of Sen.

I have a mapping application written in a flex/flash app. This app is used primarily to get bounding coordinates for the currently visible data on the map. I want to put this in an ASP page that is using ajax to update search results. The search results are defined by the bounding coordinates. Basically these bounding coordinates are the search query. What is the best way to update this search with the current coordinates from the flex app? I am not sure of the best way to have flex interact with the web page.
How do I tell my ajax driven ASP .net page to update results based on data from the flex app?

Anyone got compile OPENSIPS with TLS enable successfully? could to share how do you do it?

Ravell Call, Deseret News Archives
As proposed amendments to the 1906 Antiquities Act go, HR1459, sponsored by Rep. Rob Bishop, R-Utah, is mild. It would require any presidential declaration of a new national monument to undergo a review under the National Environmental Policy Act.
It is a small step, but a good one. We prefer earlier proposals that would have required a president to seek public input from those affected, as well as from the governor and congressional delegation of the state in which the monument is to be created.
For that matter, why not make the designation of a national monument subject to congressional approval? In a nation that values checks and balances and public input, why should a president be granted such unilateral power?
In 1906, President Teddy Roosevelt used the Act to protect sensitive natural wonders, particularly in the West. But today the Act gives presidents too much temptation to use monuments as political tools.
Utahns are all-too-familiar with the prime example of such abuse. In the middle of his 1996 campaign for re-election, President Bill Clinton called a press conference at the Grand Canyon and solidified his political base by declaring almost 2 million acres of Southern Utah the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument.
The vast new monument included some areas worth preserving, and some not, and it tied up vast underground reserves of coal.
HR1459 passed the House this week, 222-201. It isn't likely to pass the Senate. That's unfortunate, because it's time this outdated declaration of presidential power was tempered.

Aid Agencies Must Implement Long-Term Solutions In Horn Of Africa To 'Banish Hunger'
With each of the three droughts in the Horn of Africa over the last decade, "the international community agreed that long-term measures were needed to prevent another tragedy. But each time, when the rains finally came, the world's good intentions melted away," Jose Graziano de Silva, director-general of the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) writes in a Project Syndicate opinion piece. "We must ensure that this does not happen again by joining forces now to banish hunger from the region once and for all," he continues.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Gamecocks coach finds time for a short day trip
South Carolina head coach Frank Martin yells at his bench during the second half of an NCAA college basketball game against Arkansas, Wednesday, Feb. 19, 2014, in Fayetteville, Ark. (AP Photo/Gareth Patterson)
Apparently it was a first.
No one involved with the Downtown Tip-Off Club could remember a college coach speaking at one of its luncheons on the same day his team was scheduled to play, but that is exactly what South Carolina Coach Frank Martin did Wednesday when he addressed a crowd of about 200 at Wyndham Riverfront Hotel in North Little Rock.
Bobby Vint, the leader of the North Little Rock Chamber of Commerce's sports committee, and Steve Shields, UALR's men's basketball coach, managed to convince Martin to speak at the luncheon about seven hours before tip off of South Carolina's game against the Arkansas Razorbacks at Walton Arena in Fayetteville.
Vint said he looked at the Razorbacks' schedule early last fall and hoped to get Martin to speak the day before the game. He thought even that would be difficult.
"I knew it might be a stretch," Vint said.
Vint, who is close friends with Shields, said he knew that Shields and Martin also were close, and Shields agreed to give Martin a call.
"I knew it was going to be in the middle of the season and it was probably a long shot, but I called him," Shields said. "And this is the way Frank is. When I asked him, he said, 'Steve, if it will help you, I'll find a way.' "
Martin called Vint and agreed to the engagement, but he said he would prefer to speak on game day rather than the day before his team played in Fayetteville.
Vint arranged to have a plane fly Martin round trip from Fayetteville to Little Rock, with a departure of 9:30 a.m. and a return of 2 p.m.
"He said, 'That's perfect. I won't be doing anything but worrying about the game anyway,' " Vint said. "That's how it evolved."
Martin said he felt relieved prior to addressing the crowd at the luncheon.
"This is a lot better than sitting in a hotel room and staring at the television set," Martin said. "This allows me to get my mind off the game for a little bit."
Looking ahead to the game, Martin told the crowd that with the way the Razorbacks have played recently that his team's best chance for victory might require a rule change.
"If we can get a bonus point every time we bring the ball across midcourt, then we might have a chance," he said.
Martin's battles against Arkansas Coach Mike Anderson go back to their Big 12 Conference days when Martin coached at Kansas State and Anderson was at Missouri. He assured the crowd that the Razorbacks were very good and would soon compete for championships.
"Mike's going to get it going," he said. "I promise you, Mike's great."
Martin answered questions for half an hour and seemed in no hurry to leave when the luncheon ended. When he and Vint left the auditorium for the airport, only the cleanup crew, other workers and Shields remained.
"That's just the way he is," Shields said. "It all goes to show you how real, how sincere, Frank is."

This research study assessed the effectiveness of a three-dimensional mathematics game, DimensionM, through a pretest–posttest control group quasi-experimental design. Participants consisted of 437 eighth graders. The classrooms were randomly assigned either to the treatment group that utilized DimensionM as a supplement to regular classroom instructions or to the control group that received regular class instructions without any computer activities. The results of the analysis on the pretest–posttest data revealed that the DimensionM game increased mathematical knowledge acquisition in algebra and maintained student motivation to learn. The findings suggest that the implementation of DimensionM in mathematics education can greatly benefit middle school students learning algebra.
Practitioner Notes

Mike Florio gives the the Tampa Bay Buccaneers their offseason to-do list. Florio thinks that the Bucs need to draft a quarterback in case they plan to release Josh Freeman. Florio also thinks that the Buccaneers need a complement for receivers Vincent Jackson and Mike Williams as well as planning for a future without Ronde Barber and Eric Wright in the secondary.This video is no longer available.

PFT Live: Bucs not sold on Freeman at QB?
Eleven years later, Frank Gore remembers draft snub
Colts running back Frank Gore, with only 700 rushing yards, will find himself as No. 8 on the all-time NFL rushing yardage list. That will provide plenty of motivation. His spot on another list still gives him motivation, more than a decade later.
"When I was coming out I had injuries," Gore told reporters on Friday. "Me, I like people doubting me. I go even harder and I love proving people wrong. When I was the sixth [running] back taken, I made sure I told myself I would be the best one out of all of them."
He clearly is. Gore's accomplishments become even more impressive when considering that his draft year of 2005 had three running backs picked in the top five: Ronnie Brown (by the Dolphins), Cedric Benson (by the Bears), and Cadillac Williams (by the Buccaneers).
The other two running backs selected before Gore in round three had their names called in round two: J.J. Arrington of the Cardinals and Eric Shelton of the Panthers. (Although the question that sparked Gore's response called him the "last guy standing" at his position from 2005, Darren Sproles also was taken that year, by the Chargers in round four. Sproles signed a contract extension with the Eagles earlier today.)
The five taken before Gore had combined career rushing yards of 16,123. Gore has 12,040 and counting — including more than twice the amount of the guy with the second most (Benson, who had 6,017).
Most glaringly, the last running back taken before Gore, Eric Shelton, had 23 total rushing yards in his career. Gore could beat that number by the end of the first quarter of his current team's first game of 2016.
Cowboys say Nick Foles isn't an option for them
When quarterback Nick Foles was released by the Rams, speculation about his next stop often included the Cowboys.
Kellen Moore is the No. 2 in Dallas, but the team talked about upgrading their options behind Tony Romo at points earlier in the offseason and Foles' best days in the NFL looked a lot better than what Moore did in his appearances with the Cowboys last season.
Foles has had plenty of bad days as well and it seems that the sum total has left the Cowboys unconvinced that he would be a better choice to be a heartbeat (or broken collarbone) away from the starting quarterback job. Owner Jerry Jones said Friday that Foles "isn't an option" and reiterated that they like Moore.
Executive vice president Stephen Jones added that the team has to develop their own quarterbacks to improve the overall depth at the position, something they'll try to do with fourth-round pick Dak Prescott this year.
Lions put DeAndre Levy on non-football injury list
In 2014, Lions linebacker DeAndre Levy had an excellent season, and the team rewarded him with a four-year, $33 million contract. But it's been all injuries since.
Last year Levy played in just one game because of a hip injury, and today the Lions announced that Levy will open training camp on the non-football injury list.
There is no immediate word on the nature of Levy's injury or if it's related to last year's hip problems. Players sometimes end up on the NFI list for just a short time at the start of camp, so this designation isn't a cause for panic in Detroit, but it's not exactly a good thing, either.
Safety Don Carey was also placed on the non-football injury list.
Injury news causes Washington G.M. to punch a wall
It was bad enough when wide receiver Josh Doctson had to start camp on the physically unable to perform list.
But it quickly became a two-for-one injury.
According to Michael Phillips of the Richmond Times-Dispatch, Washington General Manager Scot McCloughan was on the practice field wearing a wrap on his left hand, and jokingly pointed at Doctson, and said: "It's this guy's fault."
As it turns out, it was.
Later in the day, former tight end Chris Cooley said on ESPN 980 that it was a reaction to McCloughan hearing news of Doctson's Achilles injury, which is keeping him from practicing.
"I said, 'What happened to your hand?'" Cooley said. "He said, when I found out about Doctson — which they thought was going to be much worse, the Doctson injury, apparently it isn't going to be as bad — I punched the wall."
Cooley said that kind of reaction inspired respect for the longtime personnel man, showing how much he cared about his roster.
Cowboys LB Damien Wilson on PUP after taking paintball to the eye
The Cowboys have seen three of their defensive players land NFL suspensions this offseason and others like linebacker Sean Lee missed time in the spring while recovering from surgeries common to players playing a physically taxing game.
They'll be without one of their linebackers for the early portion of camp because of a more unusual malady. The team has placed linebacker Damien Wilson on the physically unable to perform list after he was shot in the eye with a paintball during the break between minicamp and training camp.
During a pre-camp press conference, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said Wilson would miss a few weeks while citing his injury as an example of the unpredictable things that can happen to make a player unavailable over the course of the season.
Jones was responding to questions about the spate of suspended Cowboys defenders and defending the vetting process that the team does before bringing them into the organization. He didn't say whether ducking when faced with enemy fire would be part of the process in the future.
Report: Aldon Smith checks into rehab
Suspeded Raiders linebacker Aldon Smith has checked himself into an undisclosed treatment center, TMZ reported Friday.
The report comes a few days after Smith denied he had posted a video of himself and another person smoking a hand-rolled substance.
Though the video showed no faces, a voice in the video said people watching wouldn't know it was Aldon Smith.
Smith, who was in court last month on a probation violation, also went to a rehab center in 2013 after he was twice charged with DUI.
The NFL suspended Smith for at least a year last November for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Recent reinstatements of Josh Gordon and Dion Jordan should be encouraging signs for Smith potentially getting back into the NFL, but the NFL will want to review the video and Smith's other matters before any decision is made.
Cowboys confirm Rolando McClain didn't report to camp
The Cowboys held a state of the team press conference to open up training camp on Friday afternoon and, after a lengthy opening statement from owner Jerry Jones, faced several questions about the suspended players on their defense.
Of particular interest was the status of linebacker Rolando McClain, who skipped the team's flight to California for camp. Vice president Stephen Jones confirmed that neither McClain nor linebacker Randy Gregory, who is reportedly in a treatment facility and facing an extension of his four-game suspension, are not with the team.
"Rolando and Gregory are both on reserve/did not report," Jones said. "There are some details about their situations that we cannot report."
The younger Jones said that the team did not feel like flaws in their program or an organizational fondness for taking risks on players contributed to the suspensions of McClain, Gregory and defensive end Demarcus Lawrence and said that the team will "continue to look at each individual on his own merits." The elder Jones said that there are always things you can't control with players, citing a paintball injury suffered by linebacker Damien Wilson that will keep him off the field for a few weeks.
Coach Jason Garrett called the culture of the team an "overwhelming strength" and said that they'll move on from players who don't fit that culture. As of now, that hasn't been the case for McClain despite multiple suspensions.
Cam Newton happy to be back in camp, and working on "the layups"
Panthers quarterback and reigning league MVP Cam Newton has had a busy offseason, filled with promotional appearances and filming a television show.
But as glamorous as it might have been hanging out with Michelle Obama, Newton said Friday he was happy to be back in bucolic Spartanburg, S.C.
"Traveling and being here, being there, making family time, doing something I've never done with the TV show, from the partnerships that are already things that you have to do contractually," Newton said, via Bill Voth of Black and Blue Review. "I couldn't wait knowing that I could actually have all my focus on Spartanburg and the Carolina Panthers.
"I've been counting the days just to get back with the guys."
Showing up at camp might allow Newton to narrow his focus, but he also made it clear there are plenty of things to work on. He recalled a conversation with owner Jerry Richardson about specific things he wanted to get better at this year — "the layups, the gimme throws," he said.
"I always ask for brutal honesty from the superior forces that's in my life, from coach [Ron] Rivera to Mr. Richardson, even to Mr. Gettleman [Dave, the Panthers G.M.]. And from my father, for that fact," Newton said. "You hear it often: 'Yeah, you can throw the comebacks and the digs, but what about the checkdowns, the slants?' Just getting back to the small nuances of the game that make big differences."
And now that he's finally back to just working on his day job, he's got time to do just that.
Jake Long won't be signing with Ravens after all
Tackle Jake Long appeared to be taking a job with the Ravens this week, but doubts about the health of his knee from the Ravens have led Long to pass on the chance to sign in Baltimore.
Long went to see Dr. James Andrews for an examination of his knee as part of the physical the Ravens gave him and told Adam Schefter of ESPN that he was "enthused" by the physician's assessment and that he also passed an exit physical with the Falcons in January, which contributed to his decision to pass on signing an injury waiver that Baltimore wanted as part of the deal. As a result, Long remains a free agent.
Long told Schefter that his knee feels great and that he still looks forward to playing this season. He had a visit with the Bears earlier in the offseason and may have to wait until the first days of camp change plans for a team to land another shot at continuing his career.
The Ravens may have to do the same if they want to add a veteran tackle to the roster as one that interests them could become available as teams becoming surer of their plans on the offensive line.
Sammy Watkins among 10 Bills not cleared for practice
Wide receiver Sammy Watkins wavered over the course of the offseason about how much time he expected to miss during Bills training camp after having surgery on his left foot in May and now we know that he won't be on the active roster for the opening practice.
The Bills placed Watkins on the physically unable to perform list on Friday, leaving him ineligible to practice with the team as long as he still carries that designation. The latest update on his condition suggested it won't be a long absence and there's no apparent concern that he'll be missing come the start of the regular season.
Wide receiver Marcus Easley, defensive tackle Kyle Williams and rookie defensive end/linebacker Shaq Lawson are also on the PUP list. Lawson is recovering from shoulder surgery that has clouded his availability for the season, although General Manager Doug Whaley said all signs from his rehab are positive at this point.
Linebacker Manny Lawson landed on the non-football injury list after injuring himself in a recent workout. Wide receiver Kolby Listenbee is on the same list while defensive tackle Marcell Dareus, defensive back Jonathan Dowling, tackle Seantrel Henderson and running back Karlos Williams are all on the non-football illness list.
Geno Smith knows he's auditioning for the rest of the league now
Geno Smith lost his shot at the Jets starting job when quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick signed earlier this week.
But even if that opportunity goes by the wayside, there could be others.
Smith admitted that this preseason will also be a chance to polish his resume for what feels like an eventual return to the job market.
"It's no disrespect to anyone, but I'm auditioning for this team and 31 other teams in the NFL," Smith said, via Rich Cimini of ESPN.com. "The way you handle all of this says a lot about your character. I've got little kids back home [in South Florida] seeing how I react. Everyone will watch to see how I react.
"I'm not going to allow this situation — because it's not the worst situation I've been in — to deter me from my ultimate goal."
The Jets have said Smith will remain the backup to Fitzpatrick, who is established as their quarterback of the present. And the recent draft picks spent on Bryce Petty and Christian Hackenberg make it clear they no longer see Smith as the future.
But while other displaced quarterbacks have asked for releases and gotten them, Smith's not banging for that now. That might be because he knows he doesn't have enough recent or quality tape to convince someone else to give him an opportunity, but whatever the reason, he's not making any waves.
With the state of the quarterback market being what it is, someone will likely offer a chance to a former second-round pick. And being a grown-up about things now won't hurt that process.
LeSean McCoy on bar fight: Things like that can't happen
Bills running back LeSean McCoy said earlier this month that he didn't really care about anyone whose opinion of him may have changed as a result of his involvement in a bar fight with off-duty Philadelphia police officers in February, but he sounded a bit different while speaking to reporters at Bills camp on Friday.
McCoy wasn't charged with a crime and won't be disciplined by the NFL as a result of the fight, but said that a meeting with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell helped him realize that "as a leader, the guy that I want to be for this team, things like that just can't happen."
"You don't hear about other guys like Peyton Manning or Tom Brady getting into incidents like that," McCoy said, via ESPN.com. "So I think sometimes you get so lackadaisical about being successful as a football player, and then you let all the minor, small things go. In a situation like that, [if] you got security or you got even off-duty officers working for me at the time, and this thing never even gets out of hand."
With that out of the way, McCoy can turn his full attention toward football. He said he's at his lightest weight since his second season and has "lots to prove" on the field in his second season with the Bills.
Adam Gase noncommittal on Dion Jordan
The NFL has reinstated Dolphins defensive end Dion Jordan. The team has not yet embraced him.
Asked for a reaction to the news, coach Adam Gase said of Jordan, "I've never met him so . . . I mean it's hard for me to answer."
Gase separately explained to reporters the team's overall approach to Jordan, the third overall pick in the 2013 draft.
"Well, obviously [we are] still getting all the details of kind of what's going on," Gase said. "I know at some point this afternoon, I'll get with Mike [Tannenbaum] and [General Manager] Chris [Grier] and we'll be able to go through every little thing that the league's informed us on. So we're still at the beginning stages of this. I know that's the boring answer but that's what it is right now. Obviously [we are] just coming off the field and you get the quick update, 'Hey, here's what little we know,' and then the good thing is, we'll have a plan. We'll have an understanding of what we need to do and the steps we need to take moving forward."
The phrase "we'll have a plan" implies that a plan possibly doesn't already exist. Which means decisions will need to be made quickly, especially with Jordan owed a $1.7 million roster bonus on Monday.
It sounds as if Gase is inclined (for now) to give Jordan a chance to earn the money.
"Like I said, I don't know him," Gase said. "I just know when he gets here, like I said, [it's a] fresh start with me. So I guess that's really all that matters."
Jordan played in 16 games as a rookie, with no starts. In 2014, he appeared in 10 games with one start. He has three career sacks.
Ultimately, the most immediate question is whether they'll keep him or cut him before the $1.7 million is due. Before answering that, the Dolphins need to know the exact moment on which the $1.7 million becomes due.
Andre Johnson signing with Titans
Wide receiver Andre Johnson is down to the Jaguars on the list of AFC South teams that he's never played for during his NFL career.
According to multiple reports, the Titans have signed Johnson to their 90-man roster. Johnson visited the Titans earlier this week.
Johnson spent the first 12 years of his career with the Texans, catching more than 100 passes five times and crossing 1,000 receiving yards seven times while being named a first-team All-Pro twice. He slowed down a bit in 2014, leading to his departure from the Texans and a move to the Colts that preceded the least productive season of his career.
The Titans hope there's a little bit more left in Johnson's tank so he can help quarterback Marcus Mariota continue to develop in his second season. If some of his knowledge were to rub off on wideout Dorial Green-Beckham as well, they'd be even happier.
Tom Coughlin will be a "senior advisor" to NFL football operations
Yes, former Jaguars and Giants coach Tom Coughlin has joined the league office. More details regarding his role have emerged.
He'll be a "senior advisor" to the league's football operations department. In that capacity, the two-time Super Bowl winner will work closely with executive V.P. of football operations Troy Vincent and all game-related committees, from the Competition Committee to the Health and Safety Committee, the Coaches Subcommittee, the General Managers Advisory Committee, the Combine Review Committee, and the NCAA Rules and Oversight Committee.
Coughlin, per a source with knowledge of the situation, also will provide strategic guidance on matters like the draft, the Pro Bowl, playing rules, coaching techniques, and football personnel development.
It's a great way for Coughlin to stay in the game, and teams that may soon be hiring new coaches should consider adding Coughlin to the list of candidates.
